“Many of these later versions are, oddly, put into duple meter; for an edition of one such, based on Granada 3, see José López Calo, La música en la catedral de Granada en el siglo XVI (Granada, 1963), vol. II, pp. 151–3, commentary pp. xxi–xxii. Burgos s.s. puts the piece in 𝄵 meter, and Plasencia 4 in Ͼ, which makes no sense and may be a selfconscious antiquification.”
